JL: I thought we were going for the home run thing on that one. I was confused. JF: Oh, we forgot a song. There must have been a misprint on my memory. JL: We forgot one of the songs. JF: Yeah. JL: How excellent. JF: Yeah, well, let's do it then. It's, um, it's Your Racist Friend. You know, I have to say, I was actually copying it off the record today, and um, pretty much everyone in the room was like "That's disgusting! You don't know the...Do you know how many songs are on this record?" So, uh, this is a song we like to call Your Racist Friend, and this is how it goes. It's off the very popular Flood album, by They Might Be Giants, and, uh, it starts with an E minor chord fellas. Everybody ready? This is where the party ends I'll just sit here wondering how you Can stand by your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you You and your racist friend It was the loveliest party that I've ever attended If anything was broken I'm sure it could be mended My is tired from this bobbing and pretending Listen to some bullet-head and the madness that he's saying This is where the party ends I'll just sit here wondering how you Can stand by your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you You and your racist friend This is where the party ends I'll just sit here wondering how you Can stand by your racist friend And I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you You and your racist friend Out from the kitchen to the bedroom to the hallway Your friend apologizes, he could see it my way He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding This is where the party ends I'll just sit here wondering how you Can stand by your racist friend And I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you You and your racist friend |
